[Machine] So I said the statement of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to Ali when he left him in Medina during the expedition of Tabuk. Saad said, "The Prophet ﷺ entrusted Ali with the leadership in Medina during the expedition of Tabuk." Ali said, "O Messenger of Allah, are you leaving me to be in charge of women and children?" The Prophet ﷺ said, "Would you not be pleased to have the same position as Harun had with Musa?" He replied, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah." Then Ali left quickly, as if I could see the dust rising from his footsteps. Hamad said, "Then Ali returned quickly."  

أحمد:١٤٩٠حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ سَلَمَةَ أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ زَيْدٍ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ قَالَ قُلْتُ لِسَعْدِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ إِنِّي أُرِيدُ أَنْ أَسْأَلَكَ عَنْ حَدِيثٍ وَأَنَا أَهَابُكَ أَنْ أَسْأَلَكَ عَنْهُ فَقَالَ لَا تَفْعَلْ يَا ابْنَ أَخِي إِذَا عَلِمْتَ أَنَّ عِنْدِي عِلْمًا فَسَلْنِي عَنْهُ وَلا تَهَبْنِي قَالَ

فَقُلْتُ قَوْلُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ لِعَلِيٍّ حِينَ خَلَّفَهُ بِالْمَدِينَةِ فِي غَزْوَةِ تَبُوكَ فَقَالَ سَعْدٌ خَلَّفَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ عَلِيًّا بِالْمَدِينَةِ فِي غَزْوَةِ تَبُوكَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَتُخَلِّفُنِي فِي الْخَالِفَةِ فِي النِّسَاءِ وَالصِّبْيَانِ؟ فَقَالَ أَمَا تَرْضَى أَنْ تَكُونَ مِنِّي بِمَنْزِلَةِ هَارُونَ مِنْ مُوسَى؟ قَالَ بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ فَأَدْبَرَ عَلِيٌّ مُسْرِعًا كَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَى غُبَارِ قَدَمَيْهِ يَسْطَعُ وَقَدْ قَالَ حَمَّادٌ فَرَجَعَ عَلِيٌّ مُسْرِعًا
